A Centennial woman came up with a number of creative ways to raise cash for The Gathering Place, a well-known Denver shelter for women, children and transgendered people.

Aside from collecting checks, Candice Jenkins sold jewelry and used clothes, produced and sold yoga videos, and either enlisted or pretended to enlist help from Denver sports celebrities, authorities believe.

The only problem? None of the cash went to the charity, according to an indictment Colorado Attorney General John Suthers announced Tuesday.

The indictment claims she bolstered her credibility by touting ties to the Tim Tebow Foundation and Annabel Bowlen, wife of Bronco’s owner Pat Bowlen.

She got a local health club to let her videotape a yoga class so she could sell the DVDs at $20 a pop, purportedly to benefit The Gathering Place. The indictment lists nearly $3,000 in profits from DVD sales.

Jenkins allegedly convinced longtime Avalanche player Stephane Yelle to accompany her at a health expo booth where she sold additional DVDs, teas and coffee — all the while claiming the cash would go to The Gathering Place, the indictment says.

For those alleged actions, she faces several felony counts of charitable fraud and criminal impersonation as well as several misdemeanor charges of theft.

But the most serious count levied against Jenkins in the indictment — Class 4 felony attempt to influence a public servant — stems from a visit an AG investigator made to her Centennial home.

Jenkins allegedly opened the door and claimed she was actually the twin sister of the suspected fraudster the investigator was seeking, according to the indictment.

Jenkins allegedly kept up the ruse until investigators confirmed with witnesses, including Jenkins’ ex-husband, that she did not have a twin.

Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said Tuesday that he respects the decision of Denver Broncos players on Sunday to protest President Donald Trump and that the president’s NFL criticism was a bid to “distract the country” from his policy failures.

Authorities arrested a 45-year-old Larimer County man after he allegedly fired large fireworks inside his own home when deputies responded to a burglary call. His actions ignited a blaze that killed a cat.
